Description Rob Hughes CLA 2003-03-20 17:34:07 EST
The code introduced in Control.WM_CONTEXTMENU to return if the handle does not 
match the wParam prevents the handling of context menus if the underlying 
widgets are not owned/created by the programmer.  In windows if a 
WM_CONTEXTMENU menssage is not processed by a child it propogates up the 
parent tree.  I imagine the code was introduced to prevent this behavior.  
However if the widget in which the message originates is not owned by me(i.e. 
anything that ActiveX components create) I cannot provide any sort of context 
menu because the events don't pass up my way(they do but are ignored at a 
lower level).

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. As such, we're closing this bug.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it and reopen this bug. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
